Answer 1

Ans) 8) c. Amino acid, pyruvate, lactic acid and glycerol

Explaination:

The gluconeogenic pathway converts pyruvate into glucose. Noncarbohydrate precursors of glucose are first converted into pyruvate or enter the pathway at later intermediates such as oxaloacetate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate.pho major noncarbohydrate precursors are lactate, amino acids, and glycerol

9) d. Glycogenesis

Explaination:

- Glycogenesis is the biosynthesis pathway that assembles glucose into branch chains of glycogen.

- Glycogenesis is the process of glycogen synthesis, in which glucose molecules are added to chains of glycogen for storage.

10) a. Insulin

Explaination:

Catabolism and anabolism have separate metabolic pathways controlled by a distinct set of hormones.

- Growth hormone,testosterone, and estrogen are anabolic hormones.

- Adrenaline,cortisol, and glucagon are catabolic hormones.

11) a. building and producing new molecules

Explaination:

Anabolism:The synthesis of complex molecules in living organisms from simpler ones together with the storage of energy; constructive metabolism.
